> > | Fix a bug where a custom tag with tagdependent body type is not handled correctly in XML syntax (kinman)
> > | 28380: Javac error with ':' and '.' in attribute names (kinman)
> > | When in deployment (ie., !development) mode, save any compilation exceptions and rethrow them (instead of recompiling and getting the same exception over and over again) until the next scheduled recompilation (luehe)
> > | Close URLConnection's InputStream after getting lastModified date, submitted by martin (luehe)
> > | 28147: Remove canonicalization, which is not very useful here, and can cause trouble with symlinks, submitted by Rick Wong (remm)

> > | Make sure to close the channel upon server stop (fhanik)
